Be careful with the melamine experts in the dishes guide how to choose

Did you know that inferior or improperly used melamine tableware can make harmful melamine easily "transferred" into our food? A product spot check released by the International Food Packaging Association recently revealed that 40% of imitation porcelain meals in the Beijing wholesale market are unqualified. These unqualified melamine tableware may cause us to eat melamine and other harmful substances.

40% market failure

The International Food Packaging Association purchased five kinds of melamine tableware from Beijing Tianyi New Shopping Mall, Wantong Shopping Mall, Linglong Tower Market, Yuegezhuang Market and Fairview Land Market to the National Environmental Product Quality Supervision and Inspection Center for testing. The results showed that the imitated porcelain cups from Tianyi New Shopping Mall and Wantong Shopping Center had serious color shifts and excessive formaldehyde, and the passing rate of all products tested was only 60%.

The so-called melamine tableware is made of melamine as a raw material, this meal has a realistic ceramic style, odorless and durable. The use of qualified porcelain tableware to replace fragile porcelain has been recognized by the World Health Organization.

The main drawback of the unsatisfactory melamine tableware investigated in this investigation is that the poor polymerization of the raw material resin will release melamine molecules and contaminate the foods that are contained. Dong Jinshi, executive vice president of the International Food Packaging Association, said: “The safety testing of melamine, the main raw material of melamine tableware, is still a blank in our national standards, and has already been established in other countries in the world.”

Imitation porcelain tableware countries have restrictions

In 2007, the Consumer Protection Authority for Consumers and Citizens of the Russian Federation issued the Director's Order requesting that the melamine content of melamine tableware be 0.1 mg/l. Russia also does not recommend children to use melamine tableware in the “Limits for Chemical Substances Contacting Food Packaging Materials”. It is not recommended to use this tableware in public restaurants that require multiple washing and disinfecting, and it cannot be used as tableware and blanching for high-temperature foods in particular. Beverage container.

Food products containing melamine are also common in Japan. Japan stipulates that the maximum amount of melamine containers released should not exceed 2 mg/l. The Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare stipulates that as a resin for making food containers, it must be ensured that melamine cannot be dissolved within 30 minutes at 60 degrees Celsius. Japanese manufacturers strictly abide by the regulations. To date, no accidents that endanger human health have occurred.

The European Union and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration have also limited the amount of melamine in foods. The EU believes that the melamine content per kilogram of food is less than 15 milligrams and the maximum limit is 30 milligrams. The US requirement is that the melamine content should not exceed 37.8 mg per kilogram of solid food.

Experts suggest picking the QS logo

Dong Jinshi told the "Life Times" reporter: "The bottom of the formal melamine tableware has company details and production license QS logo and number."

Dong Jinshi suggested that we should not use acidic, oily or alkaline foods for a long time when using melamine tableware; in particular, do not use oily foods on melamine tableware and use microwave ovens to prevent the release of toxic substances. Just bought the melamine tableware, should be boiled in boiling water for two or three minutes, or soaked in vinegar at room temperature for two hours, so that the release of harmful substances as much as possible, cook the water to remember to drain. When cleaning porcelain tableware, use a soft rag, scouring pad, and decontamination powder to wipe the surface of the dishes.

Qualified porcelain tableware can be placed in the refrigerator or boiled for higher safety. When purchasing, go to regular malls and supermarkets to buy; see whether there is deformation of the tableware; children do not use bright colored porcelain tableware, especially the side of the printing, should try to pick light colors of melamine tableware.
